Recipe Summary
Preparation Time: 30 minutes
Cooking Time: 3 hours
Total Time: 3 hours 30 minutes
Ingredients for Skinny Veggie Crockpot Lasagna
- 2 24-ounce jars or cans of Italian tomato sauce (see notes)
- 9 thick lasagna noodles with wavy edges (mine were called bronze cut)
- 24 ounces part-skim ricotta cheese OR cottage cheese
- 3-4 cups chopped vegetables of choice (I used kale)
- Pesto (to taste)
- 2 cups shredded Mozzarella or Provolone cheese
- Parmesan cheese for topping
- Fresh parsley for topping
Instructions for Skinny Veggie Crockpot Lasagna
- Spray the Crockpot with nonstick cooking spray. Spread 1/2 cup tomato sauce to the bottom so the noodles don’t stick.
- Break noodles so that they fit and mostly cover the bottom. They will probably be awkward looking – not a big deal. Cover with about one third of the ricotta, veggies, pesto, sauce, cheese, and end with noodles.
- Repeat layers two more times for a total of three complete layers. End with a layer of noodles on top, covered with a thin layer of sauce and a little bit more shredded cheese.
- Cover and cook on high for 3 hours or on low for 5-6 hours. Turn the crockpot off completely and let the lasagna sit for at least one hour.
- This allows all the moisture to get soaked into the lasagna, and if you don’t do this it will probably be more like lasagna soup – still good, but not pretty.
- Depending on how long you let it sit, you can either scoop pieces out or just cut with a knife like normal lasagna.
